I added a username which was pointing to active directory. When I am trying to reset password it’s showing me error message - “Cannot send password reminders to users who are authenticated using Active Directory (LDAP)”.

Dear Team,

I tried the command (FinalBuilderServer.Management.Service.exe -recover [username])&nbsp; as &nbsp;you suggested. I am getting following error.

F:\Program Files (x86)\FinalBuilder Server 7\>FinalBuilderServer.Management.Servi  
ce.exe -recover PBMBuildService  
FinalBuilder Server Management Service Recovery Console

Will reset password and assign full Administrator privileges for user "PBMBuildS  
ervice"

Please enter a new password for user "PBMBuildService" and press return:  
[admin@123](mailto:admin@123)

Failed to reset user PBMBuildService:  
VSoftTechnologies.FinalBuilderServer.Management.Users.UserTypeInvalidException:  
Passwords can only be set on users that use the standard authentication method  
&nbsp;&nbsp; at VSoftTechnologies.FinalBuilderServer.Management.Users.XmlUserProvider.SetP  
assword(String username, String password)  
&nbsp;&nbsp; at VSoftTechnologies.FinalBuilderServer.Management.ManagementEngine.ResetUser  
(String username, String password)  
&nbsp;&nbsp; at VSoftTechnologies.FinalBuilderServer.Management.Service.ManagementServiceM  
ain.RecoverUser(String[] args)

Note: Previously we were working with default user 'Admin' and password 'Admin'&nbsp;and it was set to active, later we created the user **PBMBuildService** using&nbsp; **Manage User** section and **PBMBuildService** account is active directory user. We made this user active and after&nbsp;the creation of user **PBMBuildService** we are unable to login at FB Web portal. We are using the right password to login at portal.

Kindly do needful to get login into the FB web portal back, Few projects build are scheduled and need to verify the status every day.

Regards

Vinod Soni

Hi Vinod,   
  
 You will most likely find that the user type is incorrectly set. Located in %PROGRAMDATA%\VSoft\FBServer7 you will find a configuration file called FBUsers.xml.   
  
 Before editing this file stop the FinalBuilderServer.Management.Service.exe service. Then open the file and locate the entry for the user in question. You will find something like the following:   
  
 [code]\<User xsi:type="StandardUser"\>[/code]   
  
 However it may have a different value for the user in question. Therefore change it to be standard, also make sure that the following are set.   
  
 [code] \<Method\>Standard\</Method\>[/code]   
  
 Save the file and then restart the service and try the reset of the password.

Dear VSoft Team,   
  
 The given solution is working for me and I am able to reset the password. I would like to say thank you on behalf of our configuration management team for your support.
